How do I disable Windows 8.1 Auto-lock
New Computer, Windows 8.1, 64-bit.  How do I disable the Windows 8.1 Auto-Lock?  I searched Forums, and the most popular answer was to go to User Accounts and Reset Security Policies.  I went to Control Panel/User Accounts and there is NO option to 'Reset Security Policies'.  Now what?  :(

Hi,

Did you have any custom GPOs for specific users/groups?

If you didn't modify your GPO,you cannot see this option(Reset Security Policies).

For this issue,I suggest you check your power plans setting first.

Also,please check Screen Saver's time and the following setting.
